Securex®

For intracutaneous suturing

The intracutaneous suture is usually continuous and is performed with either a curved cutting needle or a straight cutting needle As this method involves removal of the suture, a monofilament, non-capillary material with a very smooth surface is required.

The set consists of

  • Premilene® suture, a flexible monofilament made of blue polypropylene
  • 2 different coloured fixation clips (red and yellow)
  • 1 curved reverse cutting or straight cutting needle: strong, ductile and atraumatic Easylide needle

Advantages

  • Simplification of the intracutaneous suture technique and fixation of suture end with sterile, disposable fixation clips
  • Excellent cosmetic result
